Golden Gate Bridge

The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate, the one-mile-wide strait connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Built in 1937, the structure links San Francisco to Marin County, carrying California State Route 1 across the strait. It has been the most photographed bridge in the world, and it was known for its beauty. With a height of 746 feet, it is the tallest bridge in the United States.
